Buddy & Wynstan

thanks! It feels like it is taking forever. The good thing is that I will be busy pretty much right until about 15 minutes before I pick him up. I did get to meet him the other day, he is such a playful little guy. It was kind of weird, because it seemed like he knew me and walked up to me and wanted to play right away, and he was being stubborn when I handed him over to the breeder! I even finally decided on his AKC reg. name. I am counting down the hours right now

naw, I don't plan on showing him, agility and herding will be the only things he might do. I have a close friend that is a trainer and she said she would be happy to see a corgi in the group. You ever watch the dog shows? You know how they always have long names? Thats what I meant. He is Sir Wynstan, Duke of Overton.

Thanks! But I will be able to sleep tonight, I had to get up at 330 in the morning and drive an hour to get stuff during the black friday sale, and with work tonight and tomorrow morning, I will be occupied. Thank goodness, because if I wasn't I am sure I would stare at the walls with boredom

Hello, Your little one is so cute!

you are right, I won't sleep tonight. I am very tired but the thought of having a puppy is keeping me up!

3:30. I think this is going to be the longest day of work ever, even though I only work from 10:30 to 3:00

He is so adorable. We can't wait to meet him. Are you going on the 5th?

Buddy & Wynstan

The first day went by smoothly, we are both tired. I love how his yawn sounds like a wookie. He is a bit too adventurous, I got a bit scared when he did a flip off the bed and acted like nothing happened.

Lol, my pc is being temperamental and will not read my sd card, and my macbook doesn't have a place for one. I promise they will be soon.

Hi Sweetie, it was not our Ellie. I was up there monday. I have had a few calls and leads, it is very emotional. We're still praying for Ellie to come home to us.

How's little Odin doing? You need to post some more pics!! Can't wait to see him next month.

Stanley & Charlotte

Oh yeah, I heard those tag silencers work really well. We let Stanley go au naturale inside so his tags don't bother me as much.

Yes I will bring Mr. Cooper. Radar is looking forward to going.

Yay, now it's Odin's turn on "pic of the day!"

Dec 15, 2009
Susan , Radar and Cooper

Took Cooper for his shots and he had a reaction where his face and ears swelled up. Of course it was 7:30 pm so I had to take him to the ER. They gave him a steroid and benedryl and he's ok. Next time the vet will have to give only half at a time. They think it was the leptospirosis. Because corgis have a tendency to do this. He's fine now. Scared me tho. Told me to buy childrens benedryl 12 1/2 mg, grape flavor. I will buy some to keep on hand. Thought I'd let you know.

Hey Alison and Odin, wanna meet up for play time?? if you are still here.

Dec 27, 2009
Buddy & Wynstan

As a joke, I am training Wynstan to learn military hand signals. I play airsoft (a more realistic version of paintball) and I think my airsoft buddies would absolutely die with laughter if they saw him respond to hand signals like that

LO wants Odin, he keeps bringing me that toy that Odin had here, the bone that had the peanut butter on.

Hey! How old is Odin? My little Pickles is 4 months old :D

Pickles, Janelle & John

I'm so happy to hear about another corgi puppy that's pickles age! We should definitely have a play day. What dog parks do you go to? So far we've gone to Altamonte, WinterPark, and Cassleberry. She seems to love Cassleberry and WinterPark's the best. We'll also be at the Jan 23rd Corgi Meetup! :D

Susan , Radar and Cooper

Well Cooper has had all his shots now. He stayed at the vets all day so they could watch him for reaction. The vets kids were there playing with him, so he survived. He weighed 14.5 lbs. He's starting to put on weight finally. Looking forward to the Jan meetup.

Edward and Gemima

Odin is getting to be a big boy...enjoy this puppy stage cuz Edward is 8mos old now and huge...I mean long; not fat and getting longer I swear everyday!!! I'm so glad you have such a great time with him. I am enjoying my two sooo much and I don't know what I would do without them!!!!

Jan 9, 2010
Buddy & Wynstan

Wow, Odin looks great! I don't think you will have to worry about him getting to be the right size

Jan 10, 2010
Edward and Gemima

We call Edward BIG BOY all the time....he weighed in at 27lbs when I had him in 2 weeks ago... double eeekkk!!!

You too! Odin was very friendly :)

You should be able to find some of his teeth, when all of our German Shepherds were teething, we found teeth in our arms and around ourselves. Good luck on finding some, it has to be slightly different for corgis.

Jan 18, 2010
Buddy & Wynstan

When they are teething like that you have to be careful that they don't eat the teeth either. The GSD we have now did not feel bad after eating a couple of her own.

Hey Alison!
We are so bummed, but we can't come on Saturday. Calvin woke up very ill this past Saturday and was really knawing at his rear back. It was very wet and oozing. We rushed him to the vet and he had developed a staph infection. The dog park must have put it in full swing. Do you remember me telling you that I thought he had a strange odor? It was the infection! Poor baby:( So now he is on antibiotics and has a shaved rear. He has to wear the cone collar for TEN DAYS!!! So sad, but we'll try to make the next get together for sure!

I thought about it, but I got a blog set up but I never remember to use it. It would end up being really general one and I am sure not everyone wants to read about my personal situations.

Jan 21, 2010
Buddy & Wynstan

What can I say, Wynstan is an interesting puppy. Everyday is truly an adventure. I may end up doing it in the near future, I will make sure to let everyone know if/when I do it.

Cooper and I hope Odin is feeling better.

Hi...We are suppose to see a breeder in Jacksonville next week. Trying to be very careful to get a reputable breeder in FL. I see you are in Orlando, did you find your Corgi in the area? We visited another breeder in N FL that turned out to be a puppy mill...very sad living conditions for the dogs. I'm so excited, but I do want to find just the right pup.

Your Corgi is so cute!!!

Your puppy is so darling. I wish your Odin could meet my Loki...but they might be mortal enemies :P

Yay for Norse mythology!

Let Odin know that his brother Cooper got neutered today. :( I see that their mother had more puppies on the 6th (different Daddy) the tramp :) she gets around. lol

Susan , Radar and Cooper

He's fine. Has to wear the "cone of shame" because he won't leave it alone. He keeps sitting down. I put him in his exercise pen (recovery room) in the kitchen to keep him quite. He wants out to play with Radar (whine, bark) but they get to rough. Went ahead an got pain meds if he needs some tomorrow. I'm off this week so I can nurse him back to health.

Mar 8, 2010
Susan , Radar and Cooper

Well today I left him in the kitchen with his cone on and when I returned it was off and chewed to pieces. He's chasing and fighting with Radar like nothing happened. Must be the two male thing to fight over everything. Mine, Mine, Mine! lol

Hello Allison and Odin! I see that you are originally from Orange Park, we are in St. Augustine! Also, I used to have a yellow lab named Odin! I LOVE the name!
Well, Elvis is from Celestial Star Kennels in Osteen, Florida (near Orlando). Where is Odin from?
